"We were first time prospective homebuyers and thought we'd been totally priced out of Alameda. We were working with another agent who wasn't quite hitting the mark.Then we found Cara Cavanagh. Cara not only worked to get to know us and listened to what we wanted out of our first home, but had a great pulse on the Alameda and broader East Bay housing market. Cara is super well connected and went beyond just sending us listings. Because of how competitive the market is out here, she went out of her way to talk to other agents, sent us properties that hadn't hit the market yet, and guided us through the whole process. We ended up closing on an amazing home, and know for sure that we couldn't have done it without Cara. We have a great starter home and will absolutely be working with Cara again. We can't recommend her enough!"-MAUREEN SILVA

"Being a first-time home buyer, there's no shortage of considerations to make and questions to ask. You need a realtor who has the confidence, experience, and know-how to guide you through the process and help you secure the right house at the right price. Cara is that realtor.
If you're looking for a house in Alameda, look no further than Cara. She knows every inch of this town and earned our trust from the get-go. She gets to know her clients and has an uncanny ability to suss out exactly what they're looking for. She's a straight-shooter with a strong network who goes above and beyond to ensure her home buyers feel heard and understood at every step of the way.
The real estate market in the Bay Area is ultra-competitive. We'd heard all sorts of stories about bidding wars, multiple offers, and deals that fell through. We braced ourselves for, what we assumed, would be a long and bumpy road. With Cara, we put one bid on one house—and we got it! I know, without a doubt, if Cara hadn't been our realtor, we wouldn't have gotten our dream house. And we're incredibly grateful!

"I am pleased to have the opportunity to recommend Cara Cavanaugh, a sales associate with Compass Real Estate in Alameda, CA.
Cara was the agent I chose to list and sell my Burbank Street home in Alameda….my family home for 66 years.
I found Cara to be consistently pleasant and professional, tackling all tasks with dedication and a smile.
She was a take-charge person and able to present creative ideas and articulate her thoughts and opinions regarding all components of selling my home. And just as importantly, she was able to listen and respect any and all of my concerns and wishes.
We were able to work as a team and make the process seamless and successful.
Cara demonstrated leadership, initiative and met deadlines and goals with ease. She was organized, reliable and worked tirelessly to make sure everything was running smoothly. She oversaw handymen, painters, gardeners, stagers and sometimes even worked right there beside them. She was quick to jump in and assist in any area necessary.
I sincerely believe that Cara is the best possible realtor to have in your corner. I interviewed four others before deciding on her, and it was the best choice I could’ve made.
She’s a go-getter, intuitive, knowledgeable, has boundless energy and will not disappoint.
If you have any further questions with regard to her capabilities and devotion to her clients, please do not hesitate to contact me.
It is a genuine pleasure and honor for me to recommend Cara Cavanaugh."-PAMELA SCHACHT GALTELLI

"I could not recommend working with Cara highly enough. My wife and I were overwhelmed even thinking about navigating the bay area housing market when looking to buy our first home. Not only did Cara find a fantastic home in our dream area (one we thought we were priced out of), but she had an incredible ability to navigate the pressures and fast-paced housing market here while also making sure to take the time to walk my wife and I though each step to ensure we were comfortable. We recommend Cara to all of our friends, and can't thank her enough!"-CURTIS LILJEDAHL

"Cara was a breath of fresh air in the selling of our home experience. She was professional but also put her heart in the care and concern of us. She really cares for her clients and does the best for them. From beginning to end, she made you feel like family."-SCOTT AND JULIE KEMP
